We'd be in a better situation than most (all?) of our rivals in the Championship.I'd take a cup win.You can't say that conclusively without knowing who we'd lose/shed in the process of relegation. Every PL team relegated get their best players cherry picked and to assume we'd be any different is naive, in my opinion. CB is likely to leave even after we've stayed up. Plus we'd have a season of playing teams, who would see Villa as their cup final.

Villa have never been relegated from the premier league. I'd rather we kept that record in tact personally.As for a cup win, Villa have won cups before - and we will again.
